The Ultimate Bitcoin Cold Storage Device is Already on Your Desk.

SafeKeepVault is a custom-hardened Linux OS that flashes to any USB flash drive, instantly turning your existing PC into a powerful, secure Bitcoin cold storage device.

  • Complete Isolation: Bypasses your host OS and completely blocks network, disk, and peripheral access.
  • Encrypted Storage: Safely locks away your seed phrase in a dedicated, secure partition.
  • Air-Gapped Security: Gives you the peace of mind of a traditional hardware wallet, powered by your own laptop or desktop PC.

Repurpose, Don't Replace

If you have a PC and a 4GB flash drive, you already have everything you need. A full-size screen and keyboard make verifying transaction details effortless, and SafeKeepVault’s fifteen built-in tools handle every step of the self-custody workflow — from generating your first seed phrase to signing complex multisig transactions.

  • Universal Compatibility: Runs on any x86 laptop or desktop using a standard 4GB+ flash drive. Supports most internal webcams or external cameras.
  • Watch Wallet Integration: Works seamlessly with your favorite Bitcoin wallet software. Export your public key, build transactions in your coordinator, and sign them air-gapped using SafeKeepVault.
  • QR-Powered Unlock: Store your vault password as a QR code on your phone. Display it to the webcam on every boot to decrypt instantly — no long password to type.

  • Optical Transmission Eliminate the need for cables or sneakernet data swaps. Move unsigned and signed transactions via high-density QR codes, ensuring your hardware remains physically and digitally disconnected from the internet.
  • Open & Accessible SafeKeepVault is open-source, fully auditable, and free to use. There are no proprietary devices to purchase and no subscriptions to manage—simply flash a standard USB flash drive and secure your Bitcoin.
